Hi HN!

I've been talking to a few engineers about how Perforce (verion control tool for large binary files) doesn't support stacked changelists, and how everyone just create massive changelists instead of trying to split them up into smaller, more reviewable chunks.

So I build p4-stack, a CLI tool in Python that brings the git rebase-style workflow to Perforce. It's ultra simple, and I'd love to hear what you think!

I also included a 90s demo of the tool at the front of README.md
